Where does the unnoticed danger lie?
How are Russians and autocrats making moves now? In the same way American Democrats once did: using social media and the content distributed there
For them, social media is not a free platform for expression, but a tool for active propaganda and censorship, manipulated through algorithmic control. Social networks like X, which Musk acquired, or newly created private networks, are prime examples. Content is often produced by figures like Tucker Carlson and Joe Rogan, for instance.
The main message is straightforward: corrupt Democrats sought to use Ukraine as a resource for their Soros-affiliated companies. To achieve this, they orchestrated the Maidan rebellion and aimed to weaken Greater Russia. Within Ukraine, there is only a corrupt government led by the caricatured Zelenskyy, which is responsible for killing its people. Meanwhile, the Democrats funded this government to safeguard their businesses. This must stop immediately.
Carlson and Rogan are really extremely popular.
How do we fight this? We need to identify and support prominent advocates of Ukraine. We must avoid any accusations of corruption and instead focus on revealing the true nature of Russia, both historically and in the present, highlighting the tragedies suffered by Ukrainians, Crimean Tatars, Jews, and Poles on our land due to Russian actions.
We must expose Russia's ongoing crimes in this war. While the "cultural Ramstein" that Zelenskyy mentioned is important, we also need to create an informational Ramstein. This means uniting countries like Poland, the Czech Republic, the United Kingdom, the Baltic States, and other true allies to jointly combat propaganda. Additionally, it is crucial to unite the Ukrainian patriotic, multi-party society.
If we don’t act quickly and collectively in the United States, we risk losing the information war for good, which would lead to even greater losses in the real war.
